macOS 15 Sequoia on Unsupported Macs Thread

[mat316]

Can you boot into Monterey? Is the internal disk as well patched with OCLP 2.1.0? What happens if you choose the EFI on the internal drive but boot from the USB device? Same issue?

It's probably worth thinking about to create a new volume on the internal drive and move Sequoia onto that partition. I have seen cases where Sonoma and Sequoia wont boot from external USB connections for whatever reasons. Maybe others can chip in on this question?

Yes I can boot into Monterey, but its very slow.
Yes, when I select the external drive from the internal EFI, same issue.

I think there is no way.
First, I don't understand that I can't boot in safe mode.
Second, my Sequoia external hd can't boot and is lost.

I will rescue the data and update the other external hd to Sequoia..

Thank U for your support.

Apple just released 15,2 beta 2 for Intel. I am downloading and will report later.

Looks like same error some of us had you need to put opencore settings back to normal if you have made any changes (according to discord a easy way to do this if you don’t know your default settings is just select the wrong machine instead of your model then change it back will reset it ) default settings e.g opencore 5 seconds and show boot picker then build with default settings then you can select what you want to change after .

Thanks.
Problem solved!

He is part of the OCLP team but not as publicly active. Reason why he started the thread is not for honours but to have someone who is in the team to make the first post with factual information and have the team being able to edit it as needed. The main post has been edited on Oct 1.

The issues are still ongoing, unfortunately.

Dear @Neon Ball
If you don't mind and you are passing thru, may I ask you if you guys are seeing the Safari iCloud favorites sync issue that has been reported here by some, including me? Many thanks regardless of if you have the time.

Issue still ongoing, if you really need the functionality downgrade to Sonoma.

>Works with a Ethernet connection. (workaround), so not yet via Wifi.

Out of curiosity: did/can you try iPhone USB as well?

Appreciate the heads-up. Many thanks!

4 days on Sequoia 15.1 and it’s smooth and snappy. Sleeps when it ought to sleep and wakes when it’s supposed to—all programs that I use for work, etc work great. Also, memories in photos finally works. Waiting another week to confirm overall long term stability. 11,4 OCLP 2.1.0

Switch off local firewall (macOS firewall) first and try again.

OCLP 2.1.1:

yepp mentioned here https://forums.macrumors.com/thread...unsupported-macs-thread.2428654/post-33540117 but be careful causes reproduceable boot problems on my main MP5,1 - all fine with 2.1.0 i think this issues will be fixed soon. (Update after reblessing all fine - does not matter if 2.1.1n or 2.1.1 final) FYI

2.1.1 is officially out. I just updated to it. You referred to it as a nightly. Just wanted to clarify it was public release now.

Hello, a newbie to OCLP and this forum. I successfully installed Sequoia 15.1 on my 2012 MBP (non-retina) using OCLP and performed the root patching. I have two questions and would appreciate any feedback.

1. During booting, the progress bar stops halfway for an extended period, and then I see a mouse pointer in the top-left corner of the screen. The progress bar then resumes and finishes at the login screen. Is this a normal behavior?

2. Once logged into the desktop, I’m unable to load any applications; they simply keep bouncing. After waiting for about five minutes, the applications load normally. Could you please provide some insights into the cause of this issue?

I updated OCLP to 2.1.1 and Sequoia to 15.1 on my 2016 MBP 13" 4-port thunderbolt 3, and in screen settings it gives me the flag on 1440 x 900 (default) while in information it gives me 2560 x 1600 which is the native resolution of my retina display, if I try to move the flag in screen settings to 2560 x 1600 everything becomes small, icons, text, etc. Does this happen to others too?

The slowdown in the progress bar at bootup is probably normal. Happens on my machine, 2012 non-retina, as well.

I don't have issues with the long delayed bouncing, but it sounds like you could still be experiencing the general slowness that occurs from indexing and other processes that run after a fresh update/install. If you don't have 16GB of RAM and an SSD instead of a spinning disk, that will contribute to slowness with the newer OSes as well.

If you haven't reset NVRAM and the SMC you might want to do that also. Old firmware could be an issue as well if the machine never ran the last Apple supported version of MacOS.

I believe that has something to do with scaling. 1440 x 900 is what a non retina would ordinarily look like in terms of size of icons and text, whereas the 2560 x 1600 is using no scaling and that's like looking at a thunderbolt display 27" I think squished into 13" on your MBP.

In other words, I think it's perfectly normal for a retina display. I think you can toggle how that works in the settings somewhere, but I don't have a retina display so I don't see those higher res options and am not sure exactly how it's called out in settings.

the problem is that before it was set to 2560 x 1600 by default and everything was sized perfectly. Then it is clear that the resolutions can be changed but that is another matter
